1. Charminar
This is an imposing monument that reflects the glory of the Qutub Shahi Dynasty. It is a massive square structure of 56m (183.72ft) high and 30m (98.42ft) wide. This monument is built entirely of granite and lime mortar. It has total four minarets and one on each corner. These fluted minarets are attached to the main building and rise towards the sky to a height of 56m (183.72 ft) with a double balcony each.
